Love in truth and action
16 We know love by this, that he laid down his life for us—and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers and sisters. 17 How does God’s love abide in anyone who has the world’s goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses help? 18 Little children, let us love not in […]
Amor de hecho y en verdad
16 En esto hemos conocido el amor, en que él puso su vida por nosotros; también nosotros debemos poner nuestras vidas por los hermanos. 17 Pero el que tiene bienes de este mundo y ve a su hermano tener necesidad, y cierra contra él su corazón, ¿cómo mora el amor de Dios en él? 18 Hijitos míos, no amemos de […]
Paz
6 Muchos son los que dicen: ¿Quién nos mostrará el bien?Alza sobre nosotros, oh Jehová, la luz de tu rostro.7 Tú diste alegría a mi corazónMayor que la de ellos cuando abundaba su grano y su mosto. 8 En paz me acostaré, y asimismo dormiré;Porque solo tú, Jehová, me haces vivir confiado.

Peace
6 There are many who say, "O that we might see some good! Let the light of your face shine on us, O Lord!"7 You have put gladness in my heart more than when their grain and wine abound. 8 I will both lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O Lord, make me lie down in safety. Photo by […]

Aférrense

De otro modo, habrán creído en vano. Fotografía de Steve Johnson en Unsplash. Diseño gráfico de Cynthia Friesen Coyle.
Hold on
1 Now I want you to understand, brothers and sisters, the good news that I proclaimed to you, which you in turn received, in which also you stand, 2 through which also you are being saved, if you hold firmly to the message that I proclaimed to you—unless you have come to believe in vain.

Celebrating Holy Week in multiple cultures can deepen faith
This piece was originally published for Holy Week in 2023. Luke 24:32 “They said to each other, ‘Were not our hearts burning within us while he was talking to us on the road, while he was opening the scriptures to us?’” In my early toddler years, I was adopted by a Mennonite family living in […]
Determination
4 The Lord God has given me a trained tongue,that I may know how to sustain the weary with a word.Morning by morning he wakens, wakens my ear to listen as those who are taught.5 The Lord God has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious; I did not turn backward.6 I gave my back to those who struck me and my cheeks to those who pulled out […]
